The Olive Branch Cafe in North West Leicestershire

might be the best breakfast i’ve ever had in the uk, came here multiple times with my gf when we lived in ashby and still come up occasionally as it’s so good and also so cheap, milkshakes are great too

Food and staff are very good the only problem is when it's busy it can get very loud and the echo is a bit much

Great place for breakfast ,service spot and very friendly. Very accomadating for my gluten free friend

Great place for a breakfast with a relaxing vibe 👌🏻

A fantastic coffee stop and the breakfast is a quality meal

What a treat! We went here for my mums birthday and was blown away with how good it was. The staff were super attentive and welcoming with a candle being added to her breakfast for an even greater experience - she loved it and we'll definitely be back very soon!

This is my favorite coffee to go place in Ashby. Most wonderful and friendly owner is Andrea. I look forward to relaxing and having my favorite coffee here which range from Capuccino, Lattes, Americanos and to my delight even Frappe. Variety of delicious breakfast to chose from. Two of the breakfasts I have had are the poached eggs with salmon in a bun with hollandaise sauce and the Haloumi Breakfast with egg, mushroom, avocado, Haloumi cheese in Pita bread. Very rustic relaxing decor with the most fragrant coffee and breakfast aromas. The service and atmosphere is friendly and laid back. Andreas makes The Olive Branch Cafe a warm and welcoming place. Fantastic coffee shop for all. 🙂

Thankyou for a fabulous Greek night. Food was delicious, service amazing. Looking forward to next time.

Great little cafe, excellent food.

Picked up a couple of breakfast cobs one Saturday morning. Nice soft bread and tasty filling.

Brilliant. It's such a treat to eat in a cafe that's so much more. Impeccable service and lots of other loyal customers.

Well prepared food, good coffee, attentive staff. This place now has a star on my Google map

The breakfast is good quality but very greasy and tastes like it’s all been put in a deep frier?

Excellent quality food and delicious too!

Great menu with excellent quality produce and extremely competitive prices, all the staff are very welcoming, the cafe has a relaxed and friendly atmosphere and caters well for kids. This is our local go to place when we want a lazy breakfast .

Arrived at opening time on a Sat on a rainy morning with two mates to find all tables reserved and offered only a table in the rain. Such poor customer service and poor management. Another to cross off the list in Mansfield.

Very disappointed couldn’t eat any of the breakfasts as we don’t have butter on toast or anything as we have allergy’s and it was all caked in it plus not sure if mushrooms cooked in it either the toast with butter on was touching all other items very disappointed as I have waisted 30+ pounds on this

The best English breakfast in town, hands down! Plus it serves till around 2pm.

I have had breakfast here in the past which was phenomenal and had lunch there today, the standard is consistently amazing. Facilites were nice and clean and staff are really friendly. I feel the food is reasonable priced and seems fresh. Amazing place

We have been to the Olive Branch so many times now and they never have got it wrong, we always say its amazing to find a place which always gets it bang on every time. The Pita breakfast was perfect (again!) And I do not know what they do to their halloumi and mushrooms but they always are so tasty. Everythings fresh, and the staff are always friendly, especially the manager who clearly loves his business and his customers. If you want good coffee, good food and a bill that won't break the bank, Olive Branch is the perfect option!

Lovely atmosphere and great staff!! Good presentation and big portions. By far the best breakfast i have had in Ashby .

Delivery driver was lovely, very cheerful and prompt.

One of the best cafes in Ashby! The service is always brilliant, the food is fab and really reasonably priced! Breakfast and lunch options are available and there is so much to choose from! I would highly recommend visiting!

If you want a decent breakfast with good quality ingredients/products this is the place!

Friendly, good value cafe that opens early and serves great coffee. The food looks and smells great but I have only had takeaway drinks.

Lovely pics for food. Service is amazing, they really do go above and beyond & would highly recommend!

Had the bagel with cream cheese,fried egg & bacon,the bacon was clearly re heated & was rock hard,yes I should of said something at the time,but I didn’t,I will next time,if it happens again.

Not a community cafe, but a cafe serving its community, with clean uncomplicated decor. Clearly the people in the area know where to come, as there were plenty of customers inside enjoying great tasting hot food, kept warm throughout the meal by the hot dish it was presented in. Friendly staff greeted me and made me feel more than welcome from the offset On my revisit very little has changed which is good because as anyone who is self employed knows, consistency is key.

Very good service the delivery woman was lovely

Really lovely staff. Second time visiting and food is really nice. Very nice atmosphere.

Amazing breakfast, quirky plates too

No tables when we arrived but the staff were amazing and we only waited a couple of minutes before we were seated. Coffee was excellent and the large full english was the best i've ever had in all honesty. Nice high ceiling makes it feel spacious, and again, the staff and the guy running the place made us feel so welcome and were great with our little one. So many places get the personal touches wrong but the other things right or vice versa but this place has it all for me. Can't wait to go back!

Popped in for brunch after visiting the nearby health centre with my elderly parents. Met with a really warm welcome and shown to a table. The owner's kindly tweaked my dad's order for him and within minutes warm and freshly cooked food arrived. I had the pancakes which were divine. Great food and service, wish I didn't live so far away from this little gem! Very well priced too.

Absolutely delicious. As close as I've gotten to Greek food in uk

Spot on breakfast, beans and toms in pots and not greasy. Perfect. Recommended!

Beautiful food. Ate from here on various occasions and the food is always served to a great standard. Highly recommend. My favourite place to eat from for breakfast :)

All the staff were very helpful, the food was freshly cooked and served hot. The cafe was very clean parking was easy

Food was great and the staff were really friendly and helpful

Great little place to grab lunch. High quality tasty food at very good prices.

Gyros was small and dry. Chips were just chunky soggy oven chips. Small breakfast looked nice, and the cappuccino was good. But overall, poor and not worth £27 at all.

Great food, extremely friendly staff and welcoming atmosphere

My favourite place for breakfast, quality food.

Great food had the medium full english good quality ingreidients cooked well worth a visit

Stopped in for Breakfast and we really enjoyed it the food was great and the staff are really friendly 🙂

Excellent breakfast - and good coffee too - excellent service - got amazing waffles dishes fir breakfast

Excellent breakfast and service. Highly recommend.

Great menu choices, for food and drinks. Can recommend the avocado, poached egg muffin! Friendly staff, efficient service, good location for parking. Would come again if I’m the neighbourhood. Definitely recommend.

Absolutely wonderful little cafe, ran by friendly, welcoming staff. Lovely unique menu to suit all tastes, food always fresh and cooked perfectly- we've been a few times now and every time has been spot on. Thanks so much!

This place is a hidden treasure, and it never fails to deliver, every visit is perfect. The food is always delicious and cooked fresh to order, I had the pita breakfast and the halloumi was just right, crisp but soft inside. I want to say thanks also to the gentleman who served us, we were sure we'd never get a seat with how busy it was but he got us in no problem. Reccommend a visit!

Love this place. Good food, lovely staff. Highly recommended

5 out of 5 stars Fantastic breakfast and coffee Staff very friendly and helpful Food is to a very high standard Will be back Thank you

Lovely place and lovely food and servise

Did not go there The 5 stars are for word of mouth comments ive heard.

Tasty food, attractively presented. Staff attentive and friendly without being intrusive. Would highly recommend.

Nice menu. Limited off-road parking. Greek theme. Fairly small. Breakfasts look great.

Really lovely cafe. Staff couldn't do more to make your visit lovely. Lots of choice. They will happily make a meal for children if they can.

Good place to meet friends without the noise. Easy parking right outside.

Lovely brunch. Brilliant food, astmosphere and pricing. A good selection on menu to suit every requirement.

Another great breakfast as usual. Our go to breakfast place!

Had a lovely impromptu lunch today. Food was freshly prepared, good quality and generous portion size. Lovely coffee and friendly service.

Amazing variety of food, fast service and very accommodating ! x

First visit, definitely will be returning

I really enjoyed this place. The food was very comforting and the staff were incredibly friendly. There are a few parking spaces outside shared with the co-op nextdoor if you're thinking or driving.

just went in for coffee and stayed for breakfast 😋 lovely place and very clean

This lovely little cafe accommodated 14 of us! Every single meal was cooked to perfection with no errors! The staff were lovely and couldn’t do enough for us asking if we needed anything extra or drinks etc! Thank you The Olive Branch! Happy new year to you all.

Wonderful tasty food and at reasonable prices. Very friendly staff. We would definitely call again if we were in the area

Lovely food & staff with great atmosphere!

We’ve been here many times. Great for breakfast. I would particularly recommend the Pitta Breakfast. The tea and coffee is of excellent quality. Friendly and relaxed atmosphere with great staff. Overall utterly superb.

Met friends for a catch up. Stayed 3 hours, we were so relaxed and there was no pressure for us to leave. Thank you so much 💐

Great food. Friendly staff. Good selection of food and value for money

Dropped in first thing on a Saturday morning and were rewarded with 5 different, fresh and delicious dishes. For a family of five, although I would have had a go at each of them. Recommended.

I heard about this lovely cafè and I decide to pop in today and since I pass through the main door I felt my self be surrounded by a nice and warm atmosphere. The owner, I'm assume, invite me to sit at one the table inside. It's good that even though business like this one has been affect by this pandemic the staff around was very friendly not just with me but with the other customers and they always served me with a big smile! My lunch break was made by a combination between this place, people around and great food! I had a pita gyros and I enjoyed every single part of my meal everything was clearly fresh and the homemade zazitky sauce has been a quite good surprise, chips were amazingly fried. Before leave I had a Pumpkin spice latte topped with whipped cream spices and for coffee lovers like me I can only say that was very tasted! I will definitely coming back to the Olive Branch Cafè in Ashby because I can't wait to try all the other meals on the menu. I will recommend this place to everyone the quality is unique! Thank you

Thus place is such a refreshing and friendly break from the monotony of Ashby's Town centre. You're guaranteed to be greeted with a smile and the service overall is brilliant. The menu has a good variety of options and they are always prepared to accommodate any tweaks / requests if you fancy something else ... a fantastic vibe with fantastic service 👌

This was my second visit in a couple of months the food is amazing the staff are so polite and friendly a real gem of a place I would highly recommended.

Popped today for my first visit, really nice staff, nice & clean, excellent food - was eyeing up what to have next time! The perfect meeting place for friends, family & colleagues. Can’t fault them, very reasonably priced too!

Friendly staff, nice atmosphere....had a lovely breakfast!!!

Stayed overnight at Tap House, they don’t do breakfast. So popped down the road to this little gem. Great choices for breakfast, lovely friendly service, highly recommended

Been going here for the past few weeks for lunch with my partner. Usually we go into town but wanted to try something different. Love the menu! Suits every taste. As a vegetarian it's often a second thought but not here. Lots of options for everyone. Tried breakfasts, sandwiches, bagels and omlettes all fabulous. Lovely, friendly service too.

Fabulous cafè serving lovely breakfasts and lunches. The Gyro's for lunch are a 'must try'. Great coffee too. Highly recommended.

Went for breakfast ended up ordering from the lunch menu. Had their gyros, one of the best outside of Greece. Thanks

Loverly breakfast and the coffee was magic really good cant wait to go again great staff .

Great food (beans and egg served on same plate but separated…genius ) nicest latte in Ashby , friendly service and reasonable price, only down side is that it’s quite far from jock steins house

Excellent, great friendly service, lovely choice of various breakfasts for both carnivores and herbivores! Lovely clean tasting food.

Amazing place went for the first time yesterday, food really good, plenty of it, staff all very friendly and all food was delivered with a smile. I will be going back soon. Thank you for an amazing experience.

Lovely place for a bite to eat. All freshly cooked and decent prices. Better than a burger bar.

Friendly, attentive staff and excellent food. Had a soya flat white and the pancakes with bacon and golden syrup - everything was perfect. Lovely atmosphere too. The food had been eaten before I remembered to take a photo, but did get a photo of their logo on the wall and these cute salt and pepper pots! 💡💡 We didn't book, and that wasn't a problem today, but I think next time I will book a table just to avoid disappointment. Would definitely recommend this place.

Absolutely fantastic! These people are really passionate about food and customer service. Every little thing was just perfect!

Had an excellent breakfast here this morning. Nice place, friendly staff and good atmosphere. Would definitely recommend

Lovely breakfast went for the smallest one. Well presented friendly staff. Bistro style eatery. Good choice of coffees.

The food is absolutely exceptional! Highly recommended

They do the best breakfast around x love it

Lovely staff, quick service, delicious food

Very welcoming staff. Unfortunately for me the chairs were uncomfortable and the room was a bit echoey. Also, the cakes were dry. If they put cushions on the chairs, improved the food quality (main meals and cakes, so they were locally sourced) and made sure the staff new more about the food. It would greatly improve it for me. It wouldn't take much for it to be a first class cafe. Personally I won't be going back. Side note. Why bother selling special bread flour, when you don't use it in your menu?? Maybe visit Lakeview cafe in Measham for menu ideas.

Great sandwiches at reasonable price.made very welcome

Love this place. So friendly. Fantastic food and excellent service.

Friendly and efficient service friendly staff.

Good coffee and excellent breakfast! Opening hours are better than the cafes in the centre of Ashby too.

Absolutely fantastic food all fresh an hot brilliant staff an a nice place to eat 5star all day long

Customer service is amazing made me feel so welcome when I came in to eat, the food excellent definitely recommend

Really delicious avocado toast with egg and bacon. The healthy salad on the side was a nice surprise and complimented the dish. The skinny cappuccino was hot as requested. A must visit for a great start to your day!
